Where to get old fishing rod refurbished?

[Barbarossa13]

Evening folks-
My grandpa recently gave me one of his old fishing rods.  It appears to be an old bamboo, octagonal rod.  From googling it I think it’s a nippon fishing tackle rod.  It’s in pretty rough shape, missing a few eyes and the varnish is peeling.  I’d love to get it touched up and hang it on the wall.  Does anyone know where I could get this done?  I found a guy on the east coast but would like to keep it local.  Thanks for your time.

This guy is in Lake Stevens.

I have, Greg is the owner and he knows his stuff.  His shop is located in downtown Lake Stevens.

Greg has a pretty good reputation from what I've heard also.

Another vote for Greg’s- they fixed up a rod for me this year and is was very nicely done.

Not meaning to thread jack but Im on a similar subject. I have two Tica fishing rods. One has a broken tip. Another needs a guide replaced. I know i have not had good luck with these poles. Both are almost new but dont want to deal with warantee so looking for a rod repair guy in Pierce or Thurston county. Any thoughts anyone? Thank for the help
